[Dan Mathews questions a man and a woman sitting in a booth in a restaurant. While standing behind a counter, pretending to be the restaurant owner, fugitive Irv Desmond draws his gun and is shot by Sergeant Johnson]

Chief Dan Mathews:
Send for the ambulance.

Sergeant Johnson:
How'd you know which one?

Chief Dan Mathews:
Well, they were too nervous. He said he was a laborer. Look at his face. He's pale as a ghost.

Susan Keefe:
I don't understand.

Chief Dan Mathews:
Well, he *was* wanted for murder.

Susan Keefe:
Murder? Oh, but he was...

Chief Dan Mathews:
Yeah, sure. I know. He seemed like such a nice guy.
